Who Should I Start? Darnell Mooney or Breece Hall

Sunday, January 4, 11:54 AM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney (knee) is officially active for Sunday's Week 18 contest against the New Orleans Saints. He had been listed as questionable after logging back-to-back limited practices. The 28-year-old has failed to meet expectations while occupying the No. 2 wide receiver role for most of this season. He has played 81.8% of the offensive snaps when healthy but has a modest stat line of 29 catches, 423 yards, and one touchdown. Mooney finds himself buried in the pecking order behind Drake London and Kyle Pitts Sr. As a result, we expect him to remain off the fantasy radar against the Saints on Sunday. He can be benched in most leagues.

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (knee) has been ruled out of Sunday's Week 18 matchup with the Bills, effectively ending his season and potentially his time with the Jets. Hall is now scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent and will likely draw a top-of-market deal as the headliner of the running back free agent class. Still only 24 years old, Hall's best football could still be ahead of him, making him an intriguing name in dynasty and a player whose value could skyrocket depending on landing spot. He finishes the 2025 campaign with a career-high 1,065 yards on the ground, along with 350 receiving yards and five total touchdowns.
